unless your wheels are all bubbling and pitted and everything else then theirs no real point in shot blasting, the layers of previous paint add to make it smooth :lol: but yea, the best way it just wet and dry it down to take the shine of them and then spray over them, then laquer them, then sand them lightly again, then get your elbow in and polish like a mad man to make them shine :D should look the dogs dangleys then 8) why what colour are you doing?

i've never seen a vauxhall with them on m8, i'd say they are just non gen wheels with vauxhall centre caps

the rear spoiler should be in two pieces, the rubbery plastic spoiler itself and then a hard plastic sort of under garment :lol: that goes under the spoiler at the top which the water jet goes into. then people have just boned them on, or you can drill holes etc
